We have two children at FEL and we could not be happier. The director, Shannon, does a wonderful job of finding fantastic teachers, both the lead teachers and the afternoon assistants (who are often UT students). My kids both love going to school each day and adore the adults who care for them. They are also learning a ton -- language and literacy, math, social skills. They are going to be well equipped for elementary school. But the kids don't realize how much they're learning -- they think they're just having fun. Communication is excellent. We get regular email updates from the lead teachers. Conferences are held regularly. The afternoon assistants are terrific about providing a full report at the end of the day. The best aspect may be the family atmosphere. All the children know their classmates' parents. There are regular class gatherings where all the families get together outside school. The parents are friends as much as the children are! Because all the children eat breakfast and lunch together and play outside in two groups, they know virtually all of the other children. FEL offers a number of extracurriculars -- music, soccer, tumbling, and chapel. All of those teachers are as incredible as the full time staff. Many students participate, but the teachers are great about making sure the kids who do not go to those classes don't feel left out. FEL feels like an extension of our home and our family.

My daughter has been going to FEL-CDC for about 1.5 years now and we absolutely love the place and our experience has been awesome. The director of the school Shannon Ball is a very friendly and welcoming lady & does a great job in hiring best teachers for the school. Both lead teachers and assistants teachers are very caring,loving and make kids feel almost at home and like a family. My daughter has learnt a lot and acquired lot of skills since she started FEL be it art & crafts, language, literacy, math, social and communication. They also provide breakfast, lunch and snack and their on-site cook Jennifer really does a great job in preparing these meals. School also offers good extracurricular activities such as music, tumbling, chapel and soccer. Communication between teachers and parents is really good be it getting the update of your child's day from afternoon assistant when you pick up or regular email updates from lead teachers. Lead teachers set up good lesson plan for each week and sent to parents ahead. There are parent-teacher conferences every semester where in you get to know your child's overall development and goals ahead. There is so much of a family environment where kids know most of other kids parents and vice versa and also there are family gatherings where parents get a chance to meet, talk and know each other. FEL feels like an extended family! I am so glad I found FEL for my daughter and recommend it to anyone looking for a nice, friendly, stress-free learning place/preschool for their kid in downtown/UT area.
